Duuuuude. It’s literally one of the greatest games ever made. It’s not a strategy game though. It’s a space RPG/adventure with the same combat. It’s insane and it’s one of the biggest inspirations for Mass Effect.
Plus, the music is incredible. The Steam version lost permission for a few of the songs, but you can find it in SourceForge and I think you can get it with the original tracks.
I think sometimes loose noises may just be plastic tabs, but doesn’t hurt to check.
One thing you can try is DeoxIT. It’s a non-conductive corrosion cleaner than you can go nuts with on contacts.
It’s expensive, but this is enough to last you roughly forever unless you're a hardcore electronics refurbisher (~1250 drops, you’ll use just a few at a time):
The Star Wars side story Solo is actually kind of a space heist. I enjoyed it and think the hate is overblown.
The Thomas Crown Affair and After the Sunset are two Pierce Brosnan movies that both involve some fun heisting as well.
Just remembered, Guy Ritchie loves a good heist flick. Lots of his movies qualify. I think Lock, Stock, and Two Smoking Barrels counts, Snatch, The Gentlemen, and even sort of The Man from UNCLE.
I hate that I forgot this. I love that movie. So much fun.
